Married to the Demon King

Lin Cong'an spared a day to accompany Yu Jiu in the competition.

The coffee shop had already asked for leave, and the meeting time for the game was not too early, so Yu Jiu cooked breakfast for the two of them according to the usual rhythm.

When he came out, he saw Lin Cong'an holding some clothes and waving at him.

"Eat first, and try these pieces after eating. I specially ordered someone to deliver them according to your size."

Yu Jiu was stunned: "The clothes you bought for me?"

Lin Cong'an showed a fleeting smile: "You have to go on stage in today's competition, and the camera will shoot it. You can't embarrass me."

Yu Jiu rubbed his face: "I work hard!"

After dinner, Lin Cong'an sent Yu Jiu to the backstage all the way.

Not many people came to watch the preliminary round, the concert hall was so big that even one-third of the seats could not be filled.

Lin Cong'an picked a position in the middle behind the judges.

As soon as he sat down, his ears caught the name he chanted every day——Yu Jiu.

"Yu Jiu... unexpectedly there is Yu Jiu, is it Yu Jiu?!" An old gray-haired professor flipped through the roster of players, the shock in his tone seemed fake.

"What?! How come?!"

"Where has he been for so many years?"

Lin Cong'an frowned.

Yu Jiu...is he famous?

There are more than 20 judges, all of whom are the most authoritative professors from various universities. They will give fair and impartial judgments and decide whether the contestants will stay or not.

The classical music circle is not big, and these professors have known each other for a long time. They usually chat, spank and eat melon seeds, and they are very casual, but today, the atmosphere has changed because of Yu Jiu's name.

Yu Jiu, they can't forget this name.

He was a veritable genius when he defeated many 12-year-old kids at the young age of 16.He was awarded the title by the media at that time: piano prodigy.

In some fields, one or two shining stars will appear every few years. They have unique conditions, enjoy the right time, place and people, and then become elusive in the eyes of others.

Yu Jiu used to be such a legend.

At his most glorious time, all his peers in the same period were eclipsed.

No one expected that his ups and downs had just arrived.

After that, he disappeared for more than ten years, and no one except the insiders still remembered him.

The waiting area of ​​the amateur group can be described as a riot of demons.

The Qingyin competition has received more and more attention. There is no live broadcast for the preliminary competition, but there are cameras recording the whole process from multiple angles.

If you go to the next round, the content of the previous game may be cut into material and put into the later live broadcast.

Many people come for attention.

In the past few sessions, some people dressed themselves up in all sorts of strange ways in order to attract attention, and then they became popular.

Since then, amateur competitions have often turned into Halloween parties or haunted night walks.

Yu Jiu glanced over, there was a man in women's clothing, a girl with glasses wearing a doctor's hat, and... what is that, Spider-Man?

Yu Jiu was dizzy, did he not keep up with the times?

"Hey brother, why don't you wear weird clothes?" A boy came over and wanted to chat with Yu Jiu: "Let me tell you, you did the right thing. Not wearing it when everyone else is wearing it is the real winner of this year." Eyeballs! When the judges think we respect classical music, maybe they will have a good impression?"

Yu Jiu looked at his well-tailored white shirt and black trousers, as well as the bow tie and brooch that Lin Cong'an gave him in the morning...

His face flushed slightly, and he came back to his senses: "It doesn't matter what you wear, as long as you play well, everything will be fine."

"Pfft—" A fat man next to him sneered, "He's another braggart, and he plays well~~ You're so good, why don't you go to the professional group?"

Yu Jiu curled his lips, too lazy to argue with him, but the brother who spoke to him smiled: "It doesn't mean that it must be bad if you don't come from a conservatory of music? Otherwise, don't set up an amateur group in this competition... Brother, don't pay attention to him, he is ugly. Still sour."

A few people watched the excitement and laughed out loud when they heard the words.

The fat man's face turned red and then turned pale, and after holding back for a long time, he said, "I think you guys don't know yourselves!"

He pointed to the cameras outside: "Who doesn't know what everyone is here for? Come to be famous! Because now there is attention and TV broadcasts, all kinds of ghosts and snakes will show their faces, and at most it will go to the semi-finals. When do you see the amateur group? People can get the ranking in the finals? Stop dreaming!"

There was silence.

What Fatty said was also true. After all, the time for amateur group training was short, and he didn't have a great mentor, so he didn't have much competitiveness in the finals.A lot of people come here to be on TV, and that's why they dress up in weird ways to attract people.

Yu Jiu was noncommittal.

After a while, the broadcast began to roll call, and the amateur group played first.

The little fat man was the first one, and he gave Yu Jiu a contemptuous look before he got on the stage.The management of the preliminary competition was not strict, and they leaned closer to the curtain so that they could hear other people's repertoire from a close distance.

The preliminary competition is the stage of repertoire selection, and many people will not choose too difficult ones, in case they make mistakes that are too ugly and get stuck by the professor.

Xiaopang played a piece of Chopin's "Waltz in E Minor".

This is a very musical piece, and it is not top-notch in terms of difficulty alone.Xiaopang was also a little nervous when he came on stage, he finished playing in a satisfactory manner, there was no big mistake, the melody was understandable, but... it was very...

"I'm sleepy." The brother in uniform yawned, "What did he play?"

Yu Jiu: "..."

Spider-Man suddenly appeared and said mysteriously: "I know, Chopin, waltz in e minor."

The big brother was stunned: "Ah? Is that so? I've heard this before. Is this what he just played?"

Yu Jiu burst out laughing, and the others had mixed feelings.

The group of people who don't have much confidence are extremely embarrassed, and feel that they are almost at this level when they are on stage.Not only have to be judged by the audience, but also ridiculed by the opponent, the psychological pressure is huge.

There are also a few quiet people who are relatively powerful.

After all, the contestants could still hear what other people were playing, and Lin Cong'an in the audience immediately felt tormented.

Ever since the first little fat man came out, he felt unpleasant, unpleasant and irritated.

But he couldn't leave the table because he didn't know when Yu Jiu would appear.

When he heard the tenth one, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he called Xiaotian in and let him stare at him, and went outside to blow the air by himself.

The competition venue is located in the Qiucheng Grand Theater. According to the procedure, today is the amateur group competition, and tomorrow is the youth group under the age of 16.

Some parents are afraid that their children will not adapt to the venue, so they come early today.Lin Cong'an saw many children who were taken by their parents to talk outside, or went in to watch the game.

There was a mother squatting to tidy up her son's clothes, muttering, "Baby, you are not young anymore, you have practiced the piano for eight years, don't be nervous tomorrow..."

Living with Yu Jiu for more than ten days, Lin Cong'an's biggest feeling is quietness.

Except for breakfast and dinner, on the way to work, Lin Cong'an hardly saw his people.

Not in the coffee shop, but in the piano room.

Lin Cong'an admired it.

He can see Yu Jiu's dedication, so he especially hopes that he will get what he wants.

And after comparing with other people, he knew how high Yu Jiu's piano skills are.

The child who said he had played the piano for eight years went in, and Lin Cong'an followed after taking a deep breath.

He saw that the contestant on the stage was a... man in a Spiderman suit?

The headgear is well put on, revealing a pair of hands, which is so wonderful that it is suffocating.

At this moment, Lin Cong'an really had the idea of ​​withdrawing the sponsorship.
